Physicians concluded that without the pull of gravity to push down on bis skeleton, the spaceman's body simply loosens up with the distance between each disc in the spinal column expanding slightly. Gravity is a rnagnetic force that holds man and al l is wordly possessions on the earth. Its effect is felt and seen in the shapes, forms, and abilities of ail living things on eartb. It is frîend and foe alike, for gravity helps us with some jobs and binders us in others. Tbink how gravity affects the buman body in its various stages. As an infant, man must learn to overcome this force in order*to stand upright and move about freely. As the body grows into adolescence and finally into adulthood, the amount of sucoess developed in adapting to the force of gravity governs bis functional ability. This is why some individuals are particularly agile, others somewhat clumsy or accident-prone. Gravity's affect can even be seen in the human profile - the toddler with bis. prominent abdomen and swayback, the young adult with bis well-proportioned chest atid fiat abdomen, the middle-aged person with bis fiat chest and prominent lower abdomen, and the senior citizen with 'bis sway-baok and pendulous lower abdomen. The cycle goes the full round. The force of gravity is acting upon your body at al times. The placement of structural components due to the force of gravity governs your functional ability and'health. Periodic spinal examinations make certain that your body structure does not deviate from the normanl. A doctor of cbiropractic bas madeé a special study of conditions related to the spine and nervous system. He seeks toflot. only locate tbe problem and give relief from symptoms, but also to correct the fundamental cause as well as' offer preventive, rehabilitation', and maintenance counsel.
